Hard times, hard times in Canaan land 困难的时候，在迦南地艰难时期

Trouble in the mind of a man 麻烦一个人的心灵

A voice came whispering softly to him 有声音耳语轻声对他

Go offer, offer up the lamb 去报价，报价上涨的羔羊

   

Abraham took his only son 亚伯拉罕把他唯一的儿子

High up on a hill 高高的山上

His test of faith had finally come 他的信仰的考验终于到来

As the wind, the wind begin to chill 随着风，风开始放松

   

Cold steel, cold steel in the father's hand 冷钢，冷钢在父亲的手

Tears falling from the sky 泪水从天上掉下来

The angels, the angels did not understand 天使，天使没看懂

Why the righteous, the righteous boy should die 为什么要义，公义的男孩死了

   

Then Abraham most mysteriously 亚伯拉罕最神秘

Laid down that deadly knife 它规定了致命的一刀

Said "My darlin' son, I wish I was the one 说： “我亲爱的儿子，我希望我是第一个

Who spared you, spared your precious life" 谁饶了你，饶了你宝贵的生命“

   

Oh Isaac 哦以撒

The light of all your days 所有的天灯

Will shine upon this mountain high 将照耀在这山高

And never, never fade away 永不，永不消逝

And never fade away 永不消逝
